Northwalls
Northwalls is a climbing gym in the inner north of Melbourne. Bouldergeist acted as the primary designer, working with the client to formulate the gym that he wanted. From this, it was tendered to several fabricators with, Walltopia building the final structure.
Although there were nips and tucks to the built design to meet budget the soul of the design remained the same.
Boulder Project
The founders of Boulder Project were looking for a way of creating a bouldering gym with dynamic movement but at a lower cost than the big name fabricators.
The solution was to create a gym that was based on standard sheets of ply eliminating the framing and cutting costs of the usual triangular formats.
